Damien Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hi there聽 I purchased a phone cover from seller on eBay last month, I got parcel in amazon packaging and hadn't a clue what it was as didn't have anything on order with them. opened it up was my phone case from eBay. however the phone case was damaged I contacted seller who ignored me soon as opened return request they got in touch with me straight away sorted postage out n full refund. everyone buys n sells stuff on from time to time but if these people are doing this on a daily basis n making huge profit needs reported as the money they make not getting taxed on n surely trading standards would have something to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazzman600 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 So you bought from eBay? Did you not look on amazon to see their prices? I always look at all the online selling sites and mostly buy from amazon coz they're cheaper and delivery methods best of all.So for those who buy from amazon and sell on on eBay I say well done you lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi mate, yeah we spoke on another thread which led to me realising i needed to purchase聽the additional Ethernet switch,聽 I'm thinking the seller is cashing in on shopping around on amazon. 25 minutes ago, tazzman600 said: So you bought from ebay?

Yep bought both items from eBay mate, and I do feel kind of stupid now that you mentioned amazon because I'm an amazon Prime member aswell 馃槶 use it for Fire TV and my kids got Amazon tablets from Santa and use Prime membership but i聽never thought of shopping around that much I'm so used to eBay been using it since 2002 馃槯 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micro Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Maybe they have a store on amazon too and are just shipping the item to you themselves from an amazon warehouse? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
